 Barbara
Ford-Hammond is
a hypnotist, hypnotherapist, regression therapist, who is based in
Newton Valence (www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_Valence), Hampshire, U.K., and
also describes herself as a muse and witch.
Barbara
has written a book,
“Past Life Tourism – Gateway to Bridging Your Past and
Future”, in which
Lorelei
and I
appear, along with
Sylvie Lucas
and Richard Lucas,
Richard being Sylvie’s discarnate (spirit) husband.
“Past life Tourism” is
published by
Mirage Publishing.
Barbara’s second book was accepted before the publication date of “Past
Life Tourism”, 25th September 2007, though it had been on
pre-order around the world since early August; the pre-order sales of
“Past Life
 Tourism” must have been very significant for a positive
decision on the second book to have been made that quickly.
I first met Barbara in 2005.
A television company was making a series on predicting the future and
one of the programmes involved future life progression. they expressed
an interest in filming some progressions with me and I suggested Andrea
Foulkes, the television regressionist, to help me progress to future
lives but, while initially interested, Andrea was unable to be available
on the day of the recording. The television company suggested Barbara
who had done other recordings for them, though I only found out about
that much later. Unfortunately, my recording was not used, nor the
others Barbara made, but that is the way these things go sometimes.
However, I got on very well with Barbara and, presumably, she with me in
view of the friendship that developed. perhaps that is partly due to our
similar, somewhat "off the wall" senses of humour; Lorelei's humour also
being much the same. although, of course, we have strong mutual
interests in esoteric and non-physical matters.
Initially, Barbara and I kept loosely in touch, until, in 2006, Barbara
invited me to contribute to her then proposed book, "Past Life Tourism".
We made arrangements for me to go to Barbara's house, in Newton Valence,
for the regression, in early December 2006.
While Lorelei was with me at a Havant Healers' Group meeting, in late
November, she said, "Caroline was the Countess in the 1700s". As
recounted elsewhere, apart from the local Chambers of Commerce, I had to
travel outside of Hampshire for business advice and support. the initial
involvement with Business Link Sussex led, eventually, to Caroline; it
was a journey that took a long time. Caroline is sufficiently in tune
with the esoteric side that when i asked her, regarding the story of
Lorelei and I, "Can you handle it?", she replied "Yes, I am an old
Soul".
The regression with Barbara
was, initially, a little unclear, at least in where it was going.
however, it was easy to relax and just let go; Barbara's own confidence
in her abilities is fully justified; she is natural and her humour
helps.
